The title of "Spy" is reserved for the military elite who are able to seamlessly slip in and out of the world of espionage, undetected. They are the silent killers who use unrivaled wit and cutting edge technology to aid them in their missions to protect their nation and her citizens. In a world wrought with danger and deception, they are the level-headed gunslingers that get the job done no matter what the cost. So let us raise our glasses to these secret heroes who have always left us shaken, and not stirred.

Throughout history, the masses have viewed the Athlete as a God amongst men, worthy of plowing across the lines that mere mortals call ethics. In this episode we dissect the basic and most overrated attributes of the culture surrounding man's most coveted, yet fleeting super-human ego. And perhaps it's only nature that we reward one's enhanced physical superiority (artificial or not) with everything they could possibly want. That is of course, whatever it takes to keep them dedicated to the most important goal of all... the WIN! For this creature, the game exists everywhere, and in everything. Without competition there is no purpose, and without purpose there are no losers. And what would a victory be without losers? In most roommate cases, these stories serve as a comedic viewing mirror to which an individual can see how their tribal cliché detracts from their inner identity. In this case however, I'm afraid it only serves as a reenactment of what these winners would likely call "a game winning play." Here's to the humble Gods who don't think it's cheating if there's no ref around to blow the whistle.

In this present economy, there is no saying what one will be willing to do to make ends meet. To some the art of stripping is more than just an act of removing their clothes, but rather it is an opportunity to create a fantasy for someone else. Some use it as a device or mechanism to empower them and allow them to obtain whatever it is that their heart desires. While others see it as a means of supplying supplemental income and they promise not to let themselves fall into the lifestyle permanently. "This is only temporary". So whether your do it professionally or recreationally, hold your head up high and proud as you shed your clothes and strip down to your birthday suit.

Never has there been a more prevalent theme for man than the fear of his own image, and there couldn't be a better example than the ones who work the hardest to define the word natural. Whether they're toting hate signs on behalf of their creator, or abusing the butch and flamboyant to get turned on, the Homophobes' gallant quest to remind everyone how straight they are has taken to an interesting desperation that can't help but beg for it's own roommate episode. And while the rest of the haters carry on about their day, hating hate with hate, these particular haters bring an awkwardness to the table that raises more questions than they have answers. So, to everyone who's made it their purpose to keep the P with the V, and to those who think fear will keep that closet door shut, don't get confused - this episode is for you.

What would this show be if it didn't address society's most sparkling practitioner of personal freedom? With the age old debate singing loudly into every orphace that has the freedom to listen, it is essential that we leave no stone unturned. The Queen, known for his loudly dramatic interpretations of the female psyche, reminds us that there's more than one way to let the world know he's fabulous, and that there's no innocent victims when it comes to sexual identity. Whether they're parading past dogmatic bullies, or cat calling at apathetic observers, it should be well known that what was once afraid is now proud, and that no bible verse nor social rules of personal space will keep this tigress contained. So let's dedicate the episode to all those who don't think we "get it" unless it's slapping us in the face.

What woman doesn't want an ever-lasting, fairy tale relationship? It would seem that for most, the idea of a relationship resembles more of a Disney story than the trials and tribulations of a bickering duo. Whether it's his fault or her fault, there's one universal understanding between both parties - the woman is always right. And it doesn't matter if emotion defies logic, that's the point of defiance. For the sake of harmony and ultimate compatibility, one calls into question not the threshold of crazy with which a person can withstand, but the length at which one will go to to find that special kind of crazy. So, for every person who purposefully lost a fight for the sake of another person's happiness, we tip our hats to you.

Unrequited love is one of the most dangerous emotions known to human kind. When a person's feelings towards another are not reciprocated, often times it creates a sense of self-worthlessness that is infectious. And in the most extreme cases, it can cause one to become delusional and obsessed. Time usually cures most people of the feeling they get when their love is not received by the person(s) of their choosing. But to those who stubbornly refuse to let the object of their affection go, we offer this cautionary tale as a reminder that you can never make some one fall in love with you...no matter how hard you try.

Heaven. Hell. Purgatory. Sheol. Reincarnation. Nirvana. Many cultures and religions have tried to offer answers and explanations for what awaits us in the afterlife. But one thing is for certain, death comes for us all. It is that unifying fact that makes us all cling to life so much. And even after ones flame has been extinguished, the lingering effects of their existence can still be felt by those left behind. So let us remember those who have moved on to wherever or whatever is next. May they rest in peace...

In life, it is our experiences that help shape us and it is our close friends and family that most often share in those experiences with us. But as we grow older, our lives start to take different paths, and for some the path leads away from what they have grown to know and leads them in another direction, away from what is familiar to them. Few are brave enough to venture out on their own and explore because when uncertainty is the clearest answer as to what lies ahead, often times it is difficult to take the first steps towards your quest. And when the unknown lies before you, it is very easy to be frightened and run back to what is familiar. But if you stay the course and beat the odds, then success will certainly be your deserved reward. So let us all who still can, push forward in our pursuit of happiness. Lest are dreams be gone with the wind...

As descendants of the great Thespis, thespians have inherited their fore father's gift and love for story telling. A gift that at times is a curse for it causes those endowed with it to pursue the craft no matter what the costs. Whether it be life, love, or liberty, these artists are bound by their commitment to the art. They display their emotional-life before us so that we may all learn from their self-sacrifice. One would believe that such selflessness would be rewarded by all with praise, adulation, and monies. Yet that is not always the case in these troubling times. But even when there is little or no monetary compensation, these soothsayers continue to tell the tales that need to be told so that we as a society never forget how to dream. So let us open are hearts and minds to their portrayals, and take in their fantastical tellings of stories near and far. For it is when we free our minds from the shackles of reality that we are able to take the journeys that ultimately lead us to enlightenment.

Our economy is terrible. And no matter how long we "Occupy" Wall Street, LA, Oakland, etc, the Bad Men will just keep winning. The 1% sit back in their ivory towers untouched and unphased and watch as the other 99% scramble around like headless chickens and drag each other down like crabs in a barrel. And why should they be worried? Like aristocratic blood-sucking vampires they have the rich to protect them, as do lycans... or a FOX. So what hope is there for the rest of us? Anarchy always sounds like a viable option, but it's not. Social destruction benefits no one in the long run. But what about a small scale rebellion? A real life Robin Hood stealing from these undeserving mega-rich and sharing with the many desolate poor. A hero who takes from those who do not hesitate to take more then what they could ever need. In these tough economic times, such an Avenging Angel is easily justified. Because after all, "is it really stealing to take back something that's already been stolen"?

It would be safe to say that behind every floral frenzied frosting circus of a party is a professional organizer who chose his/her career for the enjoyment of entertaining others. But since most exorbitant parties with a five figure budget are really just about outshining the rest of the community, the Party Planner is as happy to be entertaining people as DJ is to be playing "I Gotta Feelin" for the 54th time that evening. And to whichever vendor, assistant, caterer, or union guy is near when the Party Planner has to solve two or more problems at once, that unlucky soul will be so mind-shanked that not even the prospect of getting to eat from the kid's buffet will ease the pain of this micro-managed marathon of passive aggression. Because if anyone should feel the pain of an underpaid mid-life crisis, it's the people he/she depends on. So in honor of all those who have worked in the service industry, this episode for every Party Planner who abuses the phrase "You get what you pay for."

Knowledge is power. And in the 21st Century the internet has allowed power to be placed in the hands of the people. But in an era where the world has become so small where can one go to hide and enjoy the luxuries of privacy? In a time where at the click of a button you can search a person's background and learn intimate details they once thought safely locked away. Others now have the ability to hack their way into your most private secrets and share them with the cyber world. What can you do to protect your anonymity? As we approach December 21st, 2012, could this be the end that the Mayans predicted? The end of an era and the beginning of a new world order where what you steal is what you get...

Linda Lovelace. Bambi Woods. Jenna Jameson. These are just some of the names of women who have paved the way for porn to become the lucrative industry that it is today. But these women, as well as all the others, are shunned by mainstream society. And are seen as immoral by the religious masses and inferior by the artistic masses. Those who are featured in pornos are never taken serious by the entertainment industry and even though some have been able to parlay their experimentation in the field into a more reputable career, ie. Sasha Grey, most porn stars are doomed and confined to be no more than "smut peddlers". Now, for content that most people deny watching, porn still rakes in 10 billion dollars annually. So either the perverts and miscreants of the world are well funded, or a lot more people watch porn than we are lead to believe. Some have embraced the industry and have even come to idolize performers, like Ron Jeremy, turning them into pop icons. And love it or hate it, porn is here to stay. So sit back, relax, and watch Lu end season 2 of "my roommate the" with a bang...
